“It’s a real treat when a band you’ve followed for the better part of two decades releases an album like this.” 9.5/10 – USA Progressive Music

“Unlike many of their contemporaries they’ve steered clear of orchestral interference. No, they’ve not gone death/thrash/black or any other non-metallic offshoot, but this isn’t galloping rhythms end-to-end.” – Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles

“…an enjoyable power metal release that thankfully leaves the cheese at home and delivers potent tunes that are well played and memorable.” 4/5 – Sea of Tranquility

“Whether you’re a new Gamma Ray fan, or if you’ve followed them since 1990, you’ll love this album.” – Metal Assault

Crossover thrash legends SUICIDAL TENDENCIES, who are currently pummeling cities throughout the U.S. on the Join The Army/ Deja Vu Tour, recently posted two new video updates from the trek. Witness the mayhem HERE.

The band will perform another week’s worth of dates, including a show at New York City’s Terminal 5 with the Cro-Mags and Underdog, before winding things down at the Sunshine Theatre in Albuquerque. Just two days after their return, ST funk metal alter ego, INFECTIOUS GROOVES, will perform a very special show in Hollywood! Sponsored by KROQ, the performance will take place on November 23 at the House Of Blues and mark the band’s only U.S. appearance in 2010!

Check out footage of the band performing at the SWU Music and Arts Festival in October at the Maeda Farm in Itú, Brazil HERE.
